Campaign: Build a Deaf School in Monze, Zambia

VIDEO [CC] - GoFundMe campaign "Deaf Perspective" featuring Lauren Hostovsky: Charity to build a Deaf school in Monze, Zambia.

Lauren Hostovsky has a dream: she wants the Deaf students in Monze, Zambia to go to a school of their own. Watch this week’s episode of Deaf Perspective and check out her fundraising page, https://gofundme.com/deafschoolzambia.

Lauren Hostovsky: As you may or may not know, only two percent of Deaf people worldwide have access to education in sign language. How are Deaf children supposed to learn?



Many Deaf and Hard of Hearing children the world over do not have access to education, often because they are viewed as mentally challenged, unimportant, mute. This appeal is about making the world a better and safer place for Deaf children everywhere, but specifically in a very special place called Monze, Zambia.



In the village of Monze, Zambia, we are trying to build a school for over 60 Deaf and Hard of Hearing children whose parents and guardians have no resources to give them the proper education, health care and adequate living conditions needed to ensure their survival. We want to build a school in which to instruct and house these children, but also to create the kinds of self-sustaining projects that will be necessary to keep the school up and running once it has been constructed.



The Zambian government does not care about these children, and their parents are often uneducated and helpless. There is currently only one teacher working with the children of Monze, Zambia. Her name is Lisa Zahra, and she has been working tirelessly to provide appropriate education and protection for these Deaf and Hard of Hearing children.



Right now we need $3000 to help cover the cost of renting a classroom for one year for these children. Please help to raise the money needed to provide a classroom and instructional supplies and food for these children for the current school year... Read More: https://gofundme.com/deafschoolzambia

VIDEO: Campaign: Kids for ASL - Task Force Team: Free Illinois School for the Deaf from Audism.



JACKSONVILLE, IL - Change.org: A letter was sent to Illinois Secretary of Education Beth Purvis, with copies to Illinois Governor Bruce Rauner, Department of Human Services Director Kris Smith, Illinois School for the Deaf Advisory Council (ISDAC), Illinois School for the Deaf Alumni Association (ISDAA), Illinois Association of the Deaf (IADD), and several legislators about Illinois School for the Deaf (ISD) issues.



Your support in signing the petition will send a strong message to ISD to stop Cued Speech and Audism make important changes and to listen to Deaf children and parents. Sign up petition HERE.

Alumni of Illinois School for the Deaf, along with the Deaf community in the State of Illinois, would like to express our concerns with Illinois School for the Deaf (ISD) administrators and hearing faculties’ oppression towards Deaf Educators and other employees at ISD. Deaf employees of ISD experienced tremendous Discrimination and Oppression by hearing administrators and faculty over the years.



More than five families with multiple Deaf children left ISD because their parents were concerned about the well-being of their children and their success in education. The environment on ISD campus is not healthy nor is it a positive experience for Deaf students due to obvious discrimination and oppression of Deaf employees.
